02 Blunt traumatic limb fractures
from Veterinary Clinical Podcasts · host Shailen Jasani
Limb fractures are a common injury following blunt trauma in dogs and cats and a rational approach to the management of these patients is crucial. In this episode I discuss this problem with Elvin Kulendra who is a Lecturer in Small Animal Surgery at the QMHA and spends most of his time nowadays doing orthopaedics. Some of the things we talk about include how easy it is to detect a fracture, when is the best time to manipulate a fracture, open versus closed fractures, tips on radiography and the rational use of antimicrobials. Find out more about CPD from the RVC featuring Elvin here If you have any comments or suggestions, please get in touch (email [email protected]; tweet @RoyalVetCollege using #saclinpod; or use the RVC's Facebook page).
